outings

wow, finally a weekend not at home in front of the telly! Lucky me that I got the car, this weekend we made good use of it. Friday night we headed over to Lithgow, another mountain town still further away from Sydney. I felt really ld, because Lizzy and me went there with Anthony and his 19stomething friends who turned out to be really typical country kids with the only aim to get drunk and hit someone. At least, I practiced driving since it was up to me to drive us home.
Saturday we went out to Katoomba, and I got to understand the Lonely Planets praise of it. Though it was still pretty cold, there were people on the streets, the pubs and restaurants were crowede with locals and tourists alike. First we went to the RSL, some kind of club (I inquired but did not fully understand the sense of it), but it had cheap beer and a live band playing. After that we went to the only "nightclub" here, where we danced untill the early morning. It was funny, but I might had enjoyed it a lot more if i was 19 too. Nevertheless it was fun and Shane and Anthony, our cowboys turned out to be awful dancers (literally). Working today was hard, but we all managed. Hopefully I get the day off tomorrow, it looks as if it's gonna rain, then you'll get some more pictures! Promise!
